'A thoughtful, impartial, well-written criticism of Ruskin's teaching,
intended to separate what the author regards as valuable and permanent
from what is transient and erroneous in the great master's
writing.'--_Daily Chronicle._

'As a straightforward account of a great deal of plucky work
unpretentiously done, this book is well worth reading. The simplicity
of the narrative is all in its favour, and accords in a peculiarly
English fashion with the nature of the subject.'--_Times._

#Captain Hinde.# THE FALL OF THE CONGO ARABS. By SIDNEY L. HINDE. With
Portraits and Plans. _Demy 8vo._ _12s. 6d._

'The book is full of good things, and of sustained interest.'--_St.
James's Gazette._

'A graphic sketch of one of the most exciting and important episodes
in the struggle for supremacy in Central Africa between the Arabs and
their Europeon rivals. Apart from the story of the campaign, Captain
Hinde's book is mainly remarkable for the fulness with which he
discusses the question of cannibalism. It is, indeed, the only
connected narrative--in English, at any rate--which has been published
of this particular episode in African history.'--_Times._

'Captain Hinde's book is one of the most interesting and valuable
contributions yet made to the literature of modern Africa.'--_Daily
News._
